multiple alarms are a little funny
Authored by: googoo on Jan 14, '04 02:58:56PM

I use multiple alarms (successfully) all the time. I typically send an E-mail alarm several hours before an important meeting and a Message (with sound) about 10 minutes in advance. The key is that your Mac must be awake with your account logged on for an alarm to work.

But I leave iCal open all the time, stay logged in, and have my computer set to never sleep...

I allow my laptop to sleep at night, but have ordered it to wake up before my alarm goes off by setting
System Preferences>Energy Saver>Schedule>Start up the computer "Every Day" at 7am
This seems to work. In the morning I usually wake up to some nice music.
